Colin, is ReiserFS (reiser v3) supported? I sure hope so, because the "normal" installer does it without any problems. I have tried to use reiserFS with ubuntu's graphical partitionner and it gives the same problem as kerinin mentionned, it complains about a missing /, so I guess that gparted did not actually format the drive like it was supposed to?
Now, here's some news: it will work, if you partition in reiserfs using the text-mode installer, and just drop the data in there with the graphical installer (manual partitionning, without changing anything). This works even if you tick the "reformat" checkbox.
